New router or mesh system setup
We unbox and set up your new router or mesh system, place the units where they will actually cover your home, and get it running with a network name and password you will remember.
If you already own a mesh kit that has been sitting in the box, we will set it up properly the first time, in the spots that make sense for your home's layout rather than wherever is closest to an outlet.
Fixing dead zones and slow spots
That room where video calls freeze or the TV keeps buffering usually comes down to distance, walls, or interference. We test signal strength room by room and add or reposition equipment so coverage reaches where you actually use it.
- Walk the house and test signal in every room you use
- Reposition or add access points to close dead zones
- Explain the settings without the jargon
Securing the network and connecting your devices
A new router should never be left on its default password. We set a strong network password, turn on the security settings that matter, and make sure guest access is set up separately if you want one.
Then we connect everything: computers, phones, tablets, TVs, printers, and any smart home devices, so you are not left doing it piece by piece after we leave.
- Strong, unique Wi-Fi password set
- Router security settings turned on
- All household devices connected and tested
For home offices and small businesses too
If you work from home or run a small office, we can also set up a separate network for work devices and make sure your connection is reliable enough for video calls and shared files. Call (615) 852-5565 Monday to Saturday, 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM, to schedule a visit.
